Transport Canada Recall - 2019600 - BMW

Issue:
On certain cars, exposure to moisture over time could cause the driver-front airbag not to inflate properly in a crash. In some cases, this could cause an airbag not to fully inflate, while in others it could cause it to deploy with more force than normal. It could also cause the inflator to rupture. If the airbag inflator ruptures, small pieces of metal could be propelled toward vehicle occupants or cause damage to the airbag and prevent its proper function.
Note: This recall affects cars built between March 25, 1998 and November 10, 1999.

Safety Risk:
In a crash requiring an airbag deployment, the driver-front airbag may not inflate properly or the inflator could rupture. This could create a risk of injury.

Corrective Actions:
BMW will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your car to a dealer to replace the driver-front airbag inflator.
